About your PC3220 Wireless PC Card Modem
The PC3220 is a wireless PC Card modem designed to fit into a Type II PC Card slot available
on most notebook PCs. This uniquely designed card allows you to connect to the Internet, send
and receive email efficiently, connect to your company’s network, and maximize productivity
when away from the office.
Power Management
Designed to take advantage of the power management and system overhead
benefits offered by the 32-bit CardBus electrical interface that extends battery life.
CardBus: another name for “advanced PC Card,” the CardBus interface works at
lower battery voltage and operates at a greater speed than the standard PC Card
interface.
4
Unique Antenna Design
The PC3220 includes a proprietary antenna design that optimizes data rate transfer
speeds, sensitivity, and increases power efficiency.
Other Features and Benefits
§ A Type II PCMCIA format supporting the CardBus I/O interface
§ Supports North American CDMA Cellular (800 MHz) and PCS (1900 MHz)
bands (analog not supported)
§ Based on the QUALCOMM MSM5100 chipset
§ Supports IS-95A/B and CDMA2000 1xRTT Release 0
§ Optimized data rates of up to 153.6 kbps on both the forward and reverse
links
§ Provides dial-up, Express Network
sm
(1xRTT) and Quick 2 Net
sm
(14.4kbps)
services
What is the Mobile Connection Manager?
The Mobile Connection Manager is an application designed to assist you in managing the
PC3220. With this application you can easily monitor and customize your connections.
The Mobile Connection Manager Software guides you through the wireless connection process.
Similar to a mobile phone display, the user interface of the Mobile Connection Manager instructs
you when to insert the PC3220 into your laptop, advises you on network availability, displays the
time of your session and amount of data being transferred and received, and when your
connection becomes dormant. Other features allow you to customize your settings, review your
connection history, and access a digital help file.
Caring for your PC3220
Storage:
§ When not in use, fold the antenna down and store in a compartment where the card can
be protected from being crushed or broken.
§ Do not apply adhesive labels to the PC3220. This may cause the card to jam inside the
PC Card slot of your notebook PC.
§ The antenna extends freely, do not forcefully hyper-extend the antenna. This may cause
it to break.
§ The PC3220 should easily fit into the PC Card slot. Forcing the PC3220 into the PC
Card slot may cause considerable damage.
§ Your PC3220 should be stored in a dry and clean place. Protect your card from liquids,
dust and excessive heat.
What is CDMA?
Your PC3220 operates on a wireless cellular network called CDMA (Code Division Multiple
Access). CDMA is a digital spread-spectrum wireless technology that offers reliable, high
speed, bi-directional throughput of up to 144 kbps for email, corporate databases and all the
5
services of the Internet. The PC3220 is a high performance card that enables you to both
send and receive data/email at maximum network rates.
Often times when using a dial-up connection, a "network busy" signal appears. That's
because there are "bottlenecks" slowing down the network. With the spread spectrum
technology of CDMA these frustrating bottlenecks are eliminated. In fact, CDMA technology
allows a network to handle more calls than competing digital technologies. Today, over 100
million consumers worldwide rely on CDMA technology for quality voice communications
and reliable, high-speed data.
What about privacy? The secure CDMA network is designed with digital coding that is
recognized only by the base station and unintelligible to eavesdroppers.
For more information on CDMA, visit the CDMA Development Group website: www.cdg.org
The Basics
Before you can begin using the PC3220 you will need to load the software on your notebook PC
and configure the PC3220. Here is a brief overview of the steps outlined in the next section:

ü Insert the PC3220 into your notebook’s PC Card slot and install the drivers
ü Activate your account when prompted by the Activation Wizard
ü Connect to your Service Provider's high-speed 1xRTT CDMA Network
CAUTION: Do not insert the PC3220 into your notebook’s PC Card slot until you are prompted to do so
by the Mobile Connection Manager software wizard. Failure to do so will result in fatal errors to your PC.
Follow the installation guidelines outlines in Section 2: Installing the Mobile Connection Manager and
PC3220 on your Notebook PC.

CHAPTER 3 Using the Mobile Connection Manager
The Mobile Connection Manager is turned on automatically when your laptop starts up, unless
you turned this option “off” in the previous section, Software Installation.
This view of the Mobile Connection is called Full Mode. An alternate view, called the System
Tray Mode, is described later in this section, titled: System Tray Mode (Connection Status
Icon and Menu).
Full Mode:
Understanding The Indicator Area and Icons
Depending on the PC3220’s operating mode, different indicators will be displayed.
Signal Strength Indicator
The Signal Strength icon displays when the Mobile Connection Manager is turned on. The bars
indicate the strength of the radio signal. Four bars signify that the signal strength is at its
maximum peak. The strength will change depending on where you are.
16
When no signal is available, the antenna symbol will change to red and the bars will be dimmed.
When this occurs, no connection is possible for one of the following reasons:
• You are outside of a CDMA network coverage area
• The signal strength is too weak
• A network problem is preventing the PC3220 from obtaining service
• The Mobile Connection Manager is not turned on or the PC3220 has not been inserted
• The antenna is not raised to a 90° angle
Service Indicator
or
The Service Indicator icon displays which network service is currently available at your location,
the Express Network
SM
(1xRTT) or the Quick 2 Net Network
SM
(14.4kbps).
Express Network
Connection
This default icon signifies that the Express
Network is available (even if Quick 2 Net is
also available)
Quick 2 Net Connection This icon signifies that only the Quick 2 Net
network is available
Note: The Express Network (3G) icon will appear even if the Quick 2 Net (2G) network is also
available.
data call: similar to making a voice call, a data call is the term used when you
access the Internet. Express Network data calls go dormant when the Internet
activity is inactive for ~30 seconds. When a data call goes dormant, you are not
being charged for airtime. Quick 2 Net calls do not go dormant.
Data Compression
The Data Compression icon appears when the Fourelle Venturi 2.1 data compression tool is
active.
When the Data Compression icon is dimmed, the Fourelle Venturi 2.1 application is inactive.
See Settings to learn about enabling and disabling this utility.
Roaming Status
The Roaming Status icon indicates the roaming status of your PC3220. When the indicator is
“on” (solid black) you are roaming within a “preferred” roaming area. When the icon is blinking,
you are roaming within a CDMA network, but not in a “preferred” zone.
No service The icon is dimmed when no service is
available
17
When the indicator is “off” (dimmed), you are within the local coverage area of Verizon Wireless.
You are not roaming.
Note: Your coverage area and billing charges depend upon your Verizon Wireless and the type of
account you have. There may be surcharges for roaming service that varies based on whether you
are in a preferred roaming area or a non-preferred roaming area. If there is no roaming agreement
between Verizon Wireless and the local carrier, you may be unable to complete calls in a non-
preferred zone.
Connection Indicator
The Connection Indicator icon signifies that a connection is established. The icon will flash while
you are in the process of connecting and will then remain static once you are connected.
If the Connection Indicator icon is dimmed, there is no connection nor is a connection attempt in
process.
Connection Time
The Connection Time field displays the duration of the current data call or connection. The timer
begins as soon as a connection is established.
The time format is 00hrs: 00min: 00sec.
Byte Counter
The Byte Counter displays the amount of data transferred and received during each session, as
soon as a connection is established in measurements of Kilobytes and Megabytes.
For 0 to 999KB: “XXX KB” format (I.e., “7 KB,” “68 KB,” or “768 KB”)
For 1MB and up: “XXX.X MB” format (I.e., “1.0 MB,” “3.2 MB” or “343.3 MB”)
Service Status Dialog Box
The Service Status Dialog Box explains the current status of your PC3220.
